Vision 2020

Our people, referred to as Mastekeers, are at the core of our inspirational growth agenda and conduct themselves by a set of defined ethical values. These values, called PACTS (Passionate, Accountable, Collaborative, Transparent and Sustainable), are imbued across the organisation, and ensure that no member of the team indulges in outrageous or discriminatory behaviour towards anyone within the organisation.

This value system, which all Mastekeers are required to uphold at all times, is rooted in respect for our heritage. More importantly, however, it serves as the framework for the behaviour of current and future generations of Mastekeers, enabling quicker and better integration of new Mastekeers into our family.

To make Mastek a global leader in Enterprise Digital Transformation

Passionate - We are fired-up about finding novel ways to exceed our customers’ expectations.

Accountable - Mastek 4.0 (our people transformation programme) empowers us to excel and accept individual ownership.

Collaborative - Mutual respect and teamwork enrich our business outcomes with unique perspectives and experiences.

Transparent - Open and honest behaviour is core to earning trust and delivering exceptional results for our stakeholders.

Sustainable - We increase our social dividend, investing as much in our communities as in business improvements.

Inspiring GrowthLeveraging Unique StrengthsA deeply-ingrained set of unique strengths propels our journey, as we move proactively towards capturing the digital transformational opportunities around the world. Leveraging these core strengths, we are continuously sharpening our competitive edge to translate it into a compelling advantage for our clients.

Agility - We deploy an incremental agile approach for all projects. By breaking each project into short small tasks, we get the flexibility to review the project at every step, as it evolves. With robust test assurance, quality controls and governance at every stage, we are able to ensure real-time responses to project requirements. This enables us to maintain project quality and timelines.

People excellence - We are proud to be driven by the very talented people in the industry. Recruited from the best universities after a rigorous assessment process, the Mastek team is proficient in meeting project expectations. Our focussed investments in our people help nurture their talent, with regular training programmes to upgrade their skills and capabilities. Our learning and development programmes are aimed at helping our people evolve as competent professionals, equipped with the necessary competencies to keep pace with the transforming market needs and trends.

State-of-the-art back-end - We embrace and employ futuristic technologies for successful digital transformation. Keeping a watch on trends in Blockchain and Internet of Things, we have made investment in these technologies to build our capabilities and serve our customers. Several advanced cloud platforms and micro-service architecture are also used to facilitate successful digital transformation.

Strong client relationship - Our innate ability to understand the challenges of our customers, across sectors, enables us to craft insightful and impactful solutions. We command an outstanding program delivery rate of 96% versus an industry standard of 81%. Our average customer relationship length is five years, and continues to grow. The final validation of our lasting customer relationships and enduring trust is the fact that 98% of our annual revenue is from repeat business.

Managing Director’sMessage

Dear Shareholders,

It is my privilege to present to you the Annual Report of Mastek for the year ended 31 March, 2018. We achieved robust growth in revenue, operating profit and earnings per share, and continue to generate consistent and sustainable value for our shareholders. More importantly, we are successfully executing against the roadmap outlined under our three year plan to become a global leader in enterprise digital transformation.

Businesses across the globe recognise the imperative to leverage new and emerging technologies to drive efficiencies. While in many cases existing legacy business systems are being modernised, yet in other cases,

“We are steadily enhancing our clientele in sectors such as financial services, retail, amongst others and revenue is being generated from multiple service offerings. To help drive future diversification, we have established a new-business sales function in the UK, focussed on driving growth across new sectors.”

new disruptive business models are being embraced to achieve the desired outcomes. In fact, it would be fair to say that almost every corporate company is pursuing digital transformation at some level. As per a recent global study, large organisations are annually spending around USD 400 billion on digital and analytic business transformations. However, according to Forbes, more than 84% of digital transformation projects fail to meet expectations. As businesses struggle to implement digital transformation, at Mastek, with our proven capabilities in delivering large and complex enterprise-wide transformation projects, we are well-placed to successfully partner businesses from end-to-end in their transformational journeys.

08 Annual Report 2017-18

The global momentum is also skewed in our favour. Major global economies are poised for sustained recovery in the next couple of years, with the US, a growing market for Mastek, already showing a strong revival in recent times. While in the UK, economic activity is likely to be subdued owing to uncertainty over the outcome of Brexit negotiations, the withdrawal of UK from the European Union offers significant opportunity for Mastek. Over 27 new government departments will be created all requiring digital platforms and an experienced software engineering partner able to deliver mission-critical applications. Having worked with the major central government departments in the UK, our experience and expertise will place us at a vantage point for new contracts. Further, there’s already a shortage of approximately 69,000 engineers a year in the UK which will be exacerbated by Brexit. With our strong talent pool of highly qualified and experienced software engineers, we are ready to help plug that gap.

John Owen, our Group CEO, came on board in November, 2016. The past financial year has been the first full year of performance under John’s able leadership. He has strengthened the executive team and inspired the organisation to reach higher, under his “Vision 2020” agenda. The consistent growth and predictability that he and his team have delivered bear testimony to the quality of vision and leadership that John has brought to Mastek.

While the UK and the US continue to be our key geographies, our business model is well-diversified and de-risked. In these markets, the revenue from government projects is spread across many programs and we have been successfully winning new deals inside those accounts. We are steadily enhancing our clientele in sectors such as financial services, retail, amongst others and revenue is being generated from multiple service offerings.

Vision 2020 articulates our ambition to be a global leader in digital transformation services. We have been steadfast in our pursuit of this vision. Innovating, developing bespoke solutions and serving clients in a rapidly changing marketplace have enabled us to reposition Mastek from a commodity Indian-offshore IT services to a high-value impact and trusted digital transformation partner. On the financial front, we continue to move towards our target of returning to industry benchmarks and providing financial stability and sustainable growth. In a similar vein, on the operational front, we simplified our operating

model and aligned all resources to a common shared plan. Our people have been the most important catalyst in enabling us to provide a compelling value proposition. During the year, we remained focussed on ensuring a high-performance culture while protecting our core values and purpose.

The Company paid an interim dividend totalling to 40% (` 2.00 per share) for FY18. The Board of Directors have recommended a final dividend of 80%, which illustrates our confidence in the long-term prospects for the business and its underlying strength. The total dividend for the year including interim dividend works out to 120% (` 6.00 per share).

I would also like to emphasise the Board’s commitment to upholding the highest standards of corporate governance. Since our inception, adhering to high ethical standards have been part of our culture - starting at the top and permeating every level of the organisation. Passionate about the business while staying true to integrity and transparency, your Board remains committed to creating shared value.

At Mastek, we also understand the importance of promoting business sustainability. Reducing our water usage, energy consumption, food wastage and e-waste are among the small but measurable steps we have undertaken, giving testament to our culture of making a difference in our world.

This is an exciting time of opportunity for the Company. Guided by our strategy, capabilities and financial strength, we remain confident of delivering higher growth and expanded profitability. On behalf of the Board, I thank our clients, partners and shareholders for their trust and support. I would also like to extend the deepest appreciation to our employees who consistently demonstrate their hard work and dedication to Mastek’s success. Mastek is an excellent Company with a bright future, and we firmly believe that the best is in the offing.

Group CEO’sMessage

Dear Shareholders,

It gives me immense pleasure to report that the FY 2017-18 was a commendable one for Mastek. In our first full year of operations towards the realisation of our Vision 2020: to be a global leader in enterprise digital transformation, we delivered a strong, balanced and sustainable performance across all aspects of our business. Vision 2020 provides cohesion, consistency and focus, enabling us to successfully compete against much larger competitors who operate in our space.

Digital is described by the World Economic Forum (WEF) as the 4th industrial revolution and is driving structural change in every company, industry and even our country. With billions of people connected to mobile devices and having unprecedented access to knowledge and information, consumer and citizen expectations continue to increase exponentially. Traditional business models are being challenged daily and will remain under constant pressure to transform into the digitally integrated enterprises, whilst retaining the traditional metrics of quality, security and cost competitiveness. Clients that need assured business outcomes to remain competitive and relevant are now increasingly looking towards companies like Mastek to support them on their digital journeys because we help them successfully bridge from the static traditional IT world to the dynamic digital era.

Our reputation for engineering excellence, our delivery track-record and our ability to drive innovation has seen us continue

to grow and lead in the enterprise digital transformation marketplace. We are admired by our clients for our program delivery rate which surpasses industry standards, evidenced by the fact that 98% of our annual revenue over the last three years has been from repeat business. As we reposition the Company with the goal of becoming a leader in Enterprise Digital Transformation, we are confident that our value proposition holds us in good stead.

While there is much more work to do, our accomplishments in FY18 should serve as an excellent source of inspiration for all Mastekeers and all our stakeholders. We secured 42 new clients during the financial year. As part of our Vision 2020 strategy, we also invested in improving our account management capabilities to increase the influence and value we offer to our customers. This has yielded strong growth and improved customer satisfaction. We continue to embed customer-centricity to build client relationships that will transform into mutually beneficial enduring relationships.

Our financial performance has been robust as well, which serves as a testament to the success of our strategy being pursued. Total consolidated income was recorded at ` 838.2 Crores for FY18 as compared to ` 572.8 Crores in FY17, reflecting an increase of 46.3% in rupee terms. Operating revenue stood at ` 817.2 Crores for FY18 as compared to ` 560.2 Crores in FY17, indicating an increase of 45.9% in rupee terms. EBITDA stood at ` 120.7 Crores (14.4% of total income) for FY18 as compared to ̀ 61.2 Crores (10.7% of total

income) in FY17, demonstrating a healthy growth of 97.3% on Y-o-Y basis.

We ended the year with a 12-month order backlog of ` 524.8 Crores (£ 56.9 mn) as on 31 March, 2018, as compared to ` 333.3 Crores (£ 41.2 mn) as on 31 March, 2017, reflecting an increase of 57.5% that demonstrates we are building positive momentum.

Driven by our robust financial results and the continued confidence in the long-term future of our business, the Board of Directors have recommended a final dividend of 80%. The total dividend for the year including interim dividend works out to 120% (` 6 per share on ` 5 Face Value).

Our quest for excellence is holistic and includes the crucial elements of Corporate Social Responsibility, Business Ethics and Sustainable Management. In this context, Mastek has always strived to do business in the right way and we therefore, welcome the recommendations made by the Kotak Committee to Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). Many of these suggestions promise to improve the levels of transparency, accountability and the overall corporate governance standards in listed companies in India and bolster investor confidence. We are proud of our governance track record and will endeavour to never become complacent about our responsibilities as a Public company. We also strive to align our Sustainability initiatives to the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations. Responsible growth is essential to us, and we will continue to implement global best practices in corporate governance and environmental protection.

Like many professional service companies, Mastek is a true reflection of the quality, dedication and professionalism of its people. We increased our Mastekeer population by 31% year-on-year and ended FY18 at 2,058 people who all share our passion, values and ambition to make Mastek a digital partner for our customers. I take this opportunity to formally acknowledge and thank every Mastekeer for bringing our values to life and integrating them into our operations, as manifested in our high level of customer-centricity and engagement approach.

Our business model is supported by our commitment to invest in our people, who are pivotal to delivering on our Vision 2020. We continue to embed leading employee management principles and practices. Unleashing the real potential of our people through continuous personal and professional development on the latest technologies and soft skills, our people transformation program Mastek 4.0 remains unique to our industry. Empowering our employees, Mastek 4.0 unlocks another level of engagement and ownership which allows Mastekeers to serve our customers better than traditional management techniques.

Our customers also understand that to bring innovative digital services to market they will need to invest in building a new type of relationship with their vendors based on trust, collaboration and transparency. This aligns very well with Mastek’s value set of PACTS (Passionate, Accountable, Collaborative, Transparent and Sustainable) and further strengthens our proposition as a trusted partner. Hopefully, this also provides our customers a clear expectation and confidence of how Mastek will perform on their behalf.

Over 36 years, many professionals have built this Company, which is consistently respected by our customers, shareholders and Mastekeers for doing business in the right way. The positive feedback and appreciation I receive whenever I meet any of our key stakeholders fills my heart with pride. Mastekeers recognise that we are only as strong as our last delivery and I assure every key stakeholder: we are and will remain focussed on delivering sustainable and enduring value 24/7. While we are rightly proud of our heritage, we are more excited and focussed on our future as a leader in Enterprise Digital Transformation. Personally, leading Mastek is a huge honour, and our focus remains on building an even stronger and better organisation.

To conclude, we have proved our capabilities in delivering large and complex enterprise-wide digital transformation projects to the public and private sector in our target markets of the UK and US. We continue to deepen our presence in these targeted geographies and do not see any business benefit in geographic market expansion at this stage of our development. Going forward, the demand environment for digital transformation remains robust in both these regions. In India, we will continue to pursue selective bidding, staying focussed on profitable projects and those that offer the prospects of long-term client relationship. With immense opportunity identified across our domain and our detailed strategy of Vision 2020 in place to unlock it, we are confident of exploiting the opportunities and remaining relevant in an ever- changing digital milieu. Our strong performance in FY18 provides us with a reinforced sense of purpose and platform to further scale our business. We intend to build on our achievements and with your continued pride, support, enthusiasm and encouragement we will continue to build Mastek into a stronger company and deliver on our true potential.

Thank you for your investment and trust in our Company.

Inspiring GrowthSeize, Succeed and SoarIn the transforming industry milieu, where digitisation is no longer an option but an imperative for growth, Mastek stands out for its distinctive business philosophy and differentiated solutions. Our technological edge, backed by state-of-the-art systems and processes, helps customers keep pace with the rapid proliferation of digitisation, which is currently taking place at the back of new technologies such as mobility, big data, the internet of things, social media and cloud.

The Opportunity Pie

Our growth odyssey is led by the expanding opportunity pie that we see across sectors and geographies. It is our constant endeavour to seize more and more opportunities to scale new heights of success.

The opportunity landscape that is inspiring us to grow in the transforming business environment of today is getting bigger by the day. As per the latest estimates, the opportunity size we are currently looking at is in the range of USD 800 billion.

A recent global study suggests that large organisations spend USD 400 billion annually on digital business transformations. However, an overwhelming 84% fail to achieve the eventual objective, with organisational silos, legacy integration, lack of continuous innovation and the shortage of talent challenging the realisation of their goal.

What enterprises need, and are looking for, are digital transformation specialists with experience and expertise, with knowledge and know-how, and with teams and talent to handhold them as they undertake the digital transformation journey.

The Challenge

Helping IPF Achieve TransformationInternational Personal Finance Plc, Europe and Mexico

International Personal Finance Plc (IPF) is a leading provider of home credit and digital loans across Europe and Mexico.

The Challenge

IPF wanted to transform its insurance offering, which was a limited add-on, into a more flexible and attractive portfolio of options. As estimated by IPF, the transformation process could take over a year and cost several million pounds. With this challenge, the search was on for a transformation partner who could build a new insurance product system that was fully integrated with the core legacy system – and do it all at a brisk speed while keeping costs low.

Mastek’s Role

At Mastek, we partnered IPF for meeting the challenges of transformation.

IPF’s KPI Transformation

The transformation objectives that Mastek helped IPF achieve through this partnership are:

We provided a flexible new platform that can, over time, take on the functions of IPF’s legacy system to become IPF’s new single core business system

The new insurance system integrates properly with the old – without complicating future developments or migrations

The new system was developed by us in a fraction of the time and at a fraction of the cost originally estimated by our client

Business Benefits

“Mastek is a good match for us: in company size and flexibility, in their specialist expertise, their responsive service and their professional attitude and behaviour. We challenge them, and they challenge us, which strengthens the partnership and delivers results.”

Steve Thomason, Head of Business Systems, Together

“I was told that Mastek could always be depended on to deliver, and I’ve consistently found that to be true, whether they’re developing a new solution from scratch, extending an existing system, or integrating something built by others.”

A Culture that isInspiring GrowthAt Mastek, the inspiration to grow finds resonance across the organisational hierarchy, with every member of our team aligned to our vision and goals. Our talented, hard-working and experienced team, which consists of a large number of software engineers, has emerged as a major pillar of our growth strategy. This year, the headcount recorded a steep jump of 31% making Mastek a strong family of 2,058 employees.

We believe in nurturing a spirit of collective ownership and teamwork among our employees, who are imbued with the culture of growth which we have embedded across the organisational framework.

channels through Linkedin and IJ

With people empowerment a key focus area of our HR ethos, we are continuously working towards upgrading and upscaling the capabilities of our employees through regular learning and development programmes. We are progressively moving towards the creation of a ‘fix, build and grow’ model for people development.

In line with the Mastek 4.0 New Age Organisation philosophy, our people are organised as self-managed groups, rather than in a command and control based hierarchical structure.

18 Annual Report 2017-18

Page 22: Mastek - Bombay Stock Exchange · lives through mission critical and enterprise digital transformation (DX) solutions. With over three decades of experience and a comprehensive bouquet

Upscaling our people capabilities

Capacity-building and skill upgrade programmes like ODI, Denodo, Qlikview & Angular were organised during the year to help Mastekeers stay abreast of market trends. Technical capability-buildin sessions, such as MEAN Stack Angular 4 & MongoDb, DevOps Foundation, Tableau, and Python, also enriched employee learning. Behavioural interventions programmes such as Project Enhance, Mastek Toastmasters Club were held to support the overall professional development of Mastekeers.

Building a positive environment

Our HR thrust on creating safe and enjoyable working conditions, coupled with a robust talent acquisition and management system, has enabled us to earn a high retention rate of 88.88%, making us the preferred choice for talent.

We are equal opportunities providers, ensuring that every employee, irrespective of gender, background and position, has the same scope for growth and progress. As a result, 6% of our employees were promoted to the next role during FY18.

Newer channels of employee recruitment such as Linkedin were leveraged to optimise talent acquisition. At the same time, we continue to maintain focus on Internal Job Posting and job rotation to ensure adequate career opportunities and engender a culture of loyalty and stability for internal employees.

To maintain diversity in the organisation, a special drive for women candidates was conducted, which resulted in higher number of women being on-boarded.

Gratitude is Attitude, International Women’s Day were celebrated with great energy and enthusiasm. Women’s Day was an ongoing celebration for 4 days across locations with workshops on Self Defence and Zumba. The female housekeeping staff was recognised as well for their constant support to the Mastek Family. Gratitude is Attitude event was introduced with the objective of encouraging Mastekeers to live our Mastek values by simply expressing gratitude to each Mastekeer and increase Mastek’s ‘Payroll Giving’ to the Mastek Foundation. This event was held thrice in the last fiscal and as a result the payroll giving enhanced from 48% to 75%.

Boosting employee engagement

To further strengthen our employee connect, our HR team continued to work towards increasing employee involvement and productivity through the year. Significant progress was made in ensuring that more Mastekeers fill their timesheets on time and with accuracy.

Talent pool was the combination of local sourcing in the geography as well as onsite opportunity to many mastekeers, thereby reducing the turnaround time and enhancing the talent pool strength for serving our customers.

Our Performance Management System (PMS) was also re-energised during the year to further strengthen our employee connect. In addition, we enhanced the benefits and support associated with maternity, infertility treatments and congenital diseases to provide employees with a richer experience

The year saw the re-launch of various initiatives that have supported the hiring requirements in the past. Most recently, the Buddy Referral programme was relaunched as StarFinder. Both Linkedin and StarFinder have been instrumental in filling up open positions cost-effectively.

Inspiring GrowthWith ResponsibilityWhile profitable growth is intrinsic to our business strategy, we believe that responsible growth is equally important to drive our success as a global corporate. Led by this belief, we have made sustainability a central agenda of our business model. We have in place a robust framework to promote sustainable growth, and a well-mapped CSR charter to ensure holistic growth for all stakeholders, including customers, employees and the communities around which we operate.

Our Sustainability, Health, and Safety Policy reflects our stringent adherence to social and environmental norms. We review and update the policy every year, in line with the latest industry norms. We strive to align our Sustainability initiatives to the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations, and have initiated several measures to achieve the same.

Our certifications endorse our commitment to Sustainability, and during the year:

Our facility at Mahape, Navi Mumbai was certified for the implementation of ISO 14001:2015 in September 2017. The surveillance audit is scheduled in July 2018.

We were certified for the implementation of OHSAS 18001:2007, an internationally recognised standard for Occupational Health and Safety Management System, in September 2017. The surveillance audit is scheduled in July 2018.

We recognise that guidelines and covenants alone cannot bring about the change we wish to see. By integrating sustainability into day-to-day operations, and making it intrinsic to our culture, we are passionately working towards a better, safer and greener future for all. Every small change, we believe, will collectively inspire a better tomorrow.

We endeavour to reduce our Carbon Footprint in every aspect of our operations. Some of the steps taken include:

Reduction in Electrical Power ConsumptionWe were able to reduce our power consumption by 18% over the previous year, through monitoring energy use and

installing LED lights. To further save energy and improve efficiency, we implemented smarter solutions with automated controls to maintain optimal temperature at optimal power consumption. LEDification of our offices as well as replacement of old power guzzler with new smarter solutions has helped to reduce our energy costs as well.

Reduction in Water WastageInstead of serving 500ml of bottled water, we are now using 200ml bottles in a step towards minimising water wastage. Plans have also been formulated for

implementation of rainwater harvesting in the summer of 2018. This will further help us to reduce our water footprint.

Reduce, Reuse and Recycle of E-wasteWe have partnered with companies such as Via Green and Indian Scrap traders for recycling and disposal of E-waste in

an eco-friendly manner. Refilling of cartridges is being carried out to minimise our E-waste.

Reducing EmissionIn December 2017, we organised a free car health check-up camp for Mastek employees to reduce environmental impact. We are working with Mastek COE

team on the carpooling app for Mastekeers. The use of fewer cars by our team will help reduce auto emissions.

Spreading Environmental Awareness

Awareness posters with captions of “use less paper” and “save trees” have been displayed in the washrooms. This will sensitise employees and visitors on the importance of protecting and preserving the earth’s resources.

Record of Food Wastage

We have started maintaining a monthly record of canteen food wastage, and the same is being displayed in our cafeteria for the information of employees. The

awareness will help bring about a positive change in the habits of our people and reduce food wastage.

Exploring Solar Power Energy

We are studying the viability of a solar powered energy / hot water solution for our cafeteria. The initiative is currently in the initial stages.

Management Discussion and Analysis

Overview of Industry and Business Environment

Global Economy & IT

The global economy growth was better than anticipated in CY2017. Global economy grew by 3.7% in CY2017, 0.1% higher than anticipated and 0.5% higher than 2016. The factors that conspired growth to be subdued in the past - a stagnant international trade, slow investment, weak aggregate demand and low commodity prices - are rebounding. Major Global economies are poised for sustained recovery in the next couple of years, with US already showing strong recovery in Q1 CY2018 and expected to continue it forward.

According to OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development), the global economy is projected to expand at a steady pace of 3.9% in CY2018 as well as CY2019. The Advanced Economies and Emerging Market & Developing Economies (EMDEs) grew at 2.3% and 4.7% in CY2017 respectively and is projected to accelerate in the next two years. The primary factors to drive global prospects are new tax reductions and increased spending in the United States (USA) aided by record levels of unemployment and additional fiscal stimulus in Germany. However, risk of geopolitical tension, trade war, protectionism, Oil prices and currency volatility still remains a concern over the prospects of recovery.

The US economy grew at 2.3% in CY2017 and is estimated to grow at 2.9% in CY2018. The United Kingdom (UK) economy grew at 1.7% in CY2017 and expected to grow at 1.3% in CY2018 mainly due to weak household spending and the drag on business investment from uncertainty relating to the outcome of the Brexit negotiations. Brexit is festering one of the largest government IT programmes ever to get off the ground. It requires huge changes and a myriad of new systems. According to GlobalData, there are at least 27 core systems across UK government that will need to be reconfigured or rewritten as a result of changes to immigration, borders and customs controls.

In China, growth is projected to slip further to 6.7% in CY2018 and to 6.4% in CY2019 from 6.9% in CY2017 mainly due to less accommodative monetary policy and the Government’s effort to rein in credit and control debt. India continues to reclaim its fastest growing economy tag among developing economies. India GDP grew at 6.6% in FY2017, is expected to strengthen at 7.2% and 7.5% in FY2018 and FY2019 respectively, with strong private investment growth driving the rebound from the transitory effects of demonetisation and the introduction of the Goods and Services Tax (GST).

The global IT spending is expected to be triggered by traditional businesses undergoing through digital transformation. According to Gartner, worldwide IT spending is estimated to be USD 3.7 trillion in CY2018, an increase of 4.5% from CY2017 spending of USD 3.5 trillion. It is forecasted to exceed USD 3.8 trillion by CY2019. The growth is expected to be driven by increased adoption of newer technologies and applications such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Robotic Process Automation (RPA), Internet of things (IoT), Blockchain etc. The worldwide IT services spending is forecasted to grow at 5.5% in CY2018 and 4.6% in CY2019 aided by increase in clients spend in digital projects and innovation. Enterprise software spending projected to grow at 9.5% in CY2018 and 8.4% in CY2019 to total USD 421 billion.

MASTEK – BUSINESS UPDATE

IT Services Industry

In the age of digitalisation, IT firms are investing substantially to build the necessary skills and digital capabilities to address new and changing customer demands. Gartner has projected IT services spending in CY2018 to USD 985 billion worldwide, growth of 5.5% over CY2017. In CY2019, it is expected to grow at 4.6% to USD 1,030 billion. The global IT services market is estimated to grow at a 5% CAGR for the forecast period of CY2016-CY2020 as per Technavio’s latest report. Organisations are increasingly outsourcing their IT-related requirements such as application and infrastructure management to IT service providers. The global sourcing growth outperformed global IT-BPM spend growth in CY2017, global sourcing grew at 1.4 times to reach USD 185-190 billion as per NASSCOM report. India remained the world’s top sourcing destination with a share of 55%. Indian IT services export stood at USD 69 billion, a growth of 6% over 2017 driven by growth in software testing and ISO (hosted applications).

According to Technavio’s latest report, key segments in IT services are Project-oriented services, IT outsourcing services, IT support and training services and Enterprise cloud computing services. The Enterprise cloud computing services is the fastest-growing segment and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 25% for the forecast period of CY2016 - CY2020 mainly due to the increased use of cloud-based solutions by enterprises for cost reduction

and efficiency. The augmented adoption of cloud computing services such as software as a service (SaaS), platform as a service (PaaS) and infrastructure as a service (IaaS) is expected to remain key growth drivers going forward.

Region wise, the Americas continue to dominate the IT services market and accounts for around 45% of the total market share. Factors such as growing emphasis on developing an IT- efficient infrastructure is expected to increase the adoption of IT services in this region. Traditional and mature verticals - BFSI, Manufacturing and Telecom continue to drive the growth while the share of Healthcare and Retail verticals augmented as Social, Mobility, Analytics and Cloud (SMAC) adoption increased across key industries.

The deep penetration of Machine Learning (ML), IoT and Big Data in the global business environment has sparked the need for Business Intelligence (BI) and Analytics systems. If the current BI systems are used in Banking and Financial services, Retail, Healthcare and other industries, then Smart Data Discovery, powered by Machine Learning will be proven to be the next game changer for businesses of all sizes and shapes. According to Gartner, the global Business Intelligence (BI) and Analytics software market touched USD 18.3 billion in CY2017 and is expected to grow to USD 22.8 billion by CY2020. The key factors driving the growth of the market include:

• DevelopmentofmodernBItoolswhichcanbeusedwithoutIT assistance

• Emergence of smart data discovery capabilities, machinelearning and automation driven software

• Ability to rapidly prepare, clean, enrich and find trusteddatasets in a more automated way

• Generationofreal-timeinsightsfromstreamingdatasourcedfrom devices and sensors

data warehousing paradigms by abstracting end-to-end process, not requiring semantic models or even a data warehouse. The use of modern BI and analytics software is helping organisations gain deeper analytical insights and serve customers effectively. In the current scenario, North America is expected to be the largest market based on spending and adoption of Business Intelligence and analytics software market.

Digital Transformation

It has been an eventful year for digital transformation. Disruptive by nature, digital technologies are continually transforming the business landscape. While the user experience, big data and smart machines proven to be big players in the business landscape in 2017; emerging technologies such as IoT, RPA, Analytics, Cloud, Blockchain and AI will remain key growth drivers for digital economy in 2018. These technologies have changed the traditional paradigms of the industry forcing to modernise existing legacy systems. The industry continue to re-structure itself to become the Digital Solution Partner of choice for its customers. DevOps and agile development are becoming mainstream and helping faster time-to-market in today’s disruptive environment. IDC predicts by 2020, 60% of all enterprises will have fully articulated an organisation-wide digital transformation platform strategy and will be in the process of implementing that strategy as the new IT core for competing in the digital economy. The strategic use of technologies to create platform business models is driving unprecedented growth opportunities in the rapidly expanding digital economy. Platform-based business models and engaging in the eco-systems of digital partners are emerging as critical factors for business success. According to NASSCOM-McKinsey Perspective 2025 report, non-linear growth is going to be more pronounced in the future as enterprises increase automation of their businesses. The Digital transformation is allowing companies to offer customised and end-to-end solution to the customer. The exponential growth in digitisation and internet connectivity is the backbone of the “Fourth Industrial Revolution”. It has the potential to propel societies forward, enable innovative business models and help governments address legitimate policy concerns.

In India, the adaption of digital technologies at the enterprise level is still at a nascent stage. Spend on social media is highest; while security, analytics spend is less than 5% of the total IT budget. BFSI, Telecom and Retail verticals are already on the digital transformation journey while Healthcare is in the early

stage of adopting technologies and is yet to define a digital strategy at the organisation level.

To conclude, digital transformation is no longer about enhancing and supporting traditional legacy technology. It is all about transforming business using creative and smart innovative technology solutions to open new opportunities and new markets. 2018 will force many organisation to realise that digital transformation is crucial in today’s market to survive. Disruption will continue to be an increasingly common occurrence in the next few years.

Mastek Limited is well poised to be amongst the top providers of agile digital transformation solutions.

Indian Market

In last 2 years, Indian economy witnessed two major disruptive reforms-Demonetisation and implementation of GST. However, the economy remained resilient and displayed positive growth. Major global economies (especially US) are showing signs of inching up and these should aid the growth in the Indian IT market.

India’s share in global IT spend has been constantly expanding touching the double-digit mark with enterprises investing in digital platform solutions such as cloud, mobility and bigdata as key drivers of this spending growth. India’s value proposition for the global IT industry is steadily shifting towards offering end-to-end digital technologies. India is on track to set itself up as the Digital capabilities hub for the world. Following data sourced from NASSCOM validates the same:

• 8,100+firmsofferingdigitalsolutions

• Accountsfor~75%ofglobaldigitaltalent

• IndianIT-BPMfirms:18-20%shareofdigitalintotalrevenue

According to NASSCOM, the Indian IT-BPM industry grew at an estimated rate of ~8% in FY2018 – from USD 154 billion in FY2017 to USD 167 billion (excl. ecommerce). Of the total Indian IT services market in FY2018, 80% contribution was from exports revenue and remaining 20% came from domestic markets. The domestic market witnessed a growth of 13.5% to USD 17 billion in FY2018 while exports market grew at 6% during the same period to reach USD 69 billion. ER&D and product development continued to be the fastest growing segment at 12.8% driven by the demand for AECS-autonomous, electrification, connectivity and shared mobility. To stay competitive with the global markets, the Indian IT firms are investing in strategic partnerships and merger & acquisitions to acquire next-gen digital capabilities and niche digital talent.

During the year under review, cloud-based transactions, Artificial Intelligence, IOT, Big Data analytics, augmented and virtual

reality and Blockchain became buzzwords across the country. Government of India’s reforms/schemes such as Aadhaar linkage, Jan Dhan Yojana or Banking for all, Demonetisation, Digital India and the rollout of GST, fuelled technology adoption in the nation. The Government has a strong focus on transforming the country into a cashless economy. CY2018 is expected to see a broader adoption and impact of these initiatives.

Mastek in UK

According to OECD Economic Outlook report, UK economy growth is estimated to be 1.3% in CY2018 and 1.1% in CY2019. The stronger global economies and the competitive value of pound against euro is likely to boost exports, consequently supporting the overall UK GDP growth.

While Brexit discussions are creating drag in business investments, IT spend in government space is expected to increase to support huge changes in the existing systems and a myriad of new systems. According to GlobalData, there are at least 27 core systems across central government that will need to be reconfigured or rewritten as a result of changes to immigration, borders and customs controls. Mastek holds successful long- term client relationship with Home Office and Health, which are expected to have a bigger share of Brexit IT projects while other key sectors continues to maintain significant spend in line with earlier years.

Apart from Brexit, the continuous unbundling of larger IT projects into smaller more manageable ones, which are awarded to SMEs, is also expected to benefit Mastek. According to GlobalData, UK public sector spent more than GBP 1 billion across digital services, DOS and G-cloud. This together with key digital programmes driven by “Digital by Default” agenda of UK government, represents a large market opportunity for Mastek in UK.

Mastek UK is registered with the G Cloud and the GDS frameworks which has helped create a good pipeline of opportunities in the Government sector. Mastek has also been awarded a contract to provide strategic DevOps capability for the UK Government Immigration programme. The direct customers in the government sector see value in their association with Mastek. On the back of this foundation, the Company has received several reputed projects this year.

Mastek UK continued to be ranked among the top vendors in delivering large complex programs in an agile manner and helping government to cut cost and time in delivery.

In the Retail sector, Mastek UK has successfully opened new accounts and look forward to growing this business at a steady pace. The Company’s Financial Services division has been

strengthened with addition of marquee clients, including 3rd largest building society providing banking and financial services and leading European international financial institution, during the year and is expected to deliver on a strong base in the coming fiscal year.

Company derived 69% of its revenue from the region.

Mastek in North America

The US economy grew at 2.3% in CY2017 and is estimated to grow at 2.9% in CY2018 mainly driven by President Trump’s tax cuts and increased consumer spending. The massive reduction in the corporation tax rate from 35% to 21% is likely to stimulate business investment and growth in the near term. US continues to remain the largest IT market, presenting huge growth opportunities to IT companies with Solutioning capabilities.

In United States, Mastek provides end-to-end solutions to Financial and Retail organisations using its unique agile-based Adapt 2.0 methodology. The Company’s subsidiary, Digility Inc. provides solution around client portals, mobility, information centralisation, Big Data and testing services.

Aligned to Company’s strategy to be a leader in Digital Commerce Transformation and Solutions, Digility acquired TAISTech, US-based leading digital commerce solution provider, to augment service capability and offerings in digital commerce space. TAISTech provides strategic consulting, large-scale digital commerce implementations and support for the Oracle ATG and Oracle Commerce Cloud applications.

The acquisition has created a platform for Mastek’s accelerated growth in the US market and will augment Mastek’s 2020 vision to be a global leader in digital transformation services.

US B2C online sales are expected to reach USD 650 billion by 2022 (Source: Statista) and it is expected to command 32.6% share of global online B2B sales by 2025 (Source: Frost & Sullivan), thus creating significant opportunity for Mastek. Commerce mordernisation (migration from ATG to Cloud), Omni-channel and B2B will be key focus areas for Mastek.

INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEMS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

Mastek’s systems for internal control and risk management go beyond what is mandatorily required to cover the best practice reporting matrices and to identify opportunities and risks with regard to its business operations.

Internal Control Systems

The Company has mechanisms in place to establish and maintain adequate internal controls over all operational and financial functions. The Company intends to undertake further measures as necessary in line with its intent to adhere to procedures, guidelines, and regulations as applicable in a transparent manner.

Mastek maintains adequate internal control systems that provide, among other things, reasonable assurance of recording the transactions of its operations in all material respects and of providing protection against significant misuse or loss of Company assets. The Company uses an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) package that enhances the efficiency of its internal control mechanism.

The Company’s internal control systems are supplemented by an internal audit programme and periodic reviews by the management. Mastek has appointed an independent audit firm as its Internal Auditors, and the Audit Committee reviews its findings and recommendations at periodic intervals. Mastek’s

internal control system is adequate considering the nature, size and complexity of its business. Mastek has also put in place a strong enterprise risk management function which oversees the risk management of the Company on an ongoing basis.

Enterprise Risk Management

Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) plays a vital role to:

• Provideaframeworkthatenhancesriskresponsedecisions

• Reduceoperationalsurprisesandtherebylosses

• Identifyandmanagecross-enterpriserisks

At Mastek, we have a Board-approved ERM policy which emphasises on the importance of having a strong risk management culture in the organisation. Our ERM policy focusses on the risk assessment, risk management, expected outcomes, governance and reporting structure at Corporate & Regional levels.

Risk Governance Structure

The success of the Company is dependent on how it manages the risk inherent in the business. The Company operates in a highly competitive segment which is widely affected by the various external and internal risks. Thus, to minimise the effect of such risks, the Company has put in place a strong risk governance model to ensure risk management. The ERM process and policy is approved by the Governance Committee of the Board and is executed through the Risk Management Committee (RMC) represented by the business and functional heads within Mastek. The RMC is responsible for:

• being the primary champion of risk management atstrategic and operational level

• settingpolicyandstrategyforenterpriseriskmanagement

• ensuring that riskmanagement policies are implementedwith the right spirit through a monitoring mechanism

• building a risk-aware culture within the organisationincluding appropriate trainings

• informingtheBoard(throughtheAuditCommittee)

• the ERM status and top risks of the Company on atimely basis

Risk Champions: The RMC is supported by the risk champions who are responsible for:

• providingoversighttolinemanagerswhomanageriskonaday-to-day basis

• promotingriskawarenesswithintheiroperations

• ensuringthatriskmanagementis incorporatedrightfromthe conceptual stage of projects/opportunities

• ensuringcompliancetotheriskmanagementprocedures

• providingperiodicreportstotheRMC

Mastek provides a diverse array of services and there are multiple factors that could affect its future performance. Some significant risks that could affect the operations have been identified as below:

Macro-economic risks: Company’s business may be affected by global political uncertainties, changes in interest rates, changes in policy, taxation and other economic developments. These changes can adversely affect the Company’s outlook. Considering the nature of business, the volatility in foreign currency exchange rates could have a negative impact on the Company’s performance. The Company has geographically diversified thereby reducing its dependency on one market or country. The Company also takes necessary steps such as forex hedging to mitigate exchange rate risks.

Strategic risks: This is an era of disruption. The Company is prone to significant and unfavourable shift in returns on capability investments, industry trends, customer preferences. Any unfavourable change in the trend, the Company is prone to the risk of innovation, business or product portfolio. Our client concentration risk is limited to an extent as Mastek has a deep-rooted relation with most of the customers.

Competition-led risks: The technology market has become so evolving and prominent that the risk of competition especially from technology giant from both India and abroad has increased. Thus, the shift of any major existing or prospective clients could affect the Company’s business. Although, the Company is well on its toes to serve the customer with its strong domain expertise, robust delivery capabilities, and significant project experience, there is no guarantee that it will always get the better of competition.

Dependence on key personnel: Employee attrition and/or constraints in the availability of skilled human resources could pose a challenge to any services company. The Company believes that its personnel are key to its success and has initiated multiple steps for overall development of its employees. We encourage entrepreneurship culture within the organisation and offer new challenges and opportunities for our employees. We have made significant investments in our recruitment and training procedures. Mastek Limited does endeavour to have an effective succession plan in place to mitigate these risks.

Client and account risks: The Company’s strategy is to engage with a few strategic customers and build long-term relationships with them. Any shift in customer preferences, priorities, and internal strategies can have an adverse impact on the Company’s operations and outlook. Mastek does have the benefit of being very well entrenched with many of its customers, involved in their critical and strategic initiatives. Therefore, client concentration-related risks are mitigated to an extent.

36 Annual Report 2017-18

Contractual, execution and delivery-related risks: The level of engagement and contract with the client exposes the Company to execution risk. In remote scenarios of any inability to adhere to delivery or quality, SLA can adversely affect our relation. Any termination or modification of contracts and non-fulfilment of contractual obligations by clients due to their own financial difficulties or changed priorities or other reasons can expose operational risk on the Company. Mastek does have mechanisms in place to try and prevent such situations, as well as insurance cover as necessary.

Acquisition/M&A related risk: The Company has made acquisitions in the past when it comes to acquiring capabilities at the right price. We believe in reducing our time to tap

the opportunity offered in this age of IT transformation but at the same time, we have put in place stringent valuation criteria, diligence parameters and high standard of corporate governance practices for any target opportunity to cross the line.

There are multiple risk factors that the Company believes it will need to take cognizance of and manage. The Board and management team continually assess the operations and operating environment to identify potential risks and take meaningful mitigation actions. The Company’s senior management team and independent board of advisers monitor the progress of each opportunity pre- and post-closure.

Inspired 2017 (Lata 75)

Mastek Foundation organized Inspired 2017, an annual fundraising event in support of Snehalaya, Ahmednagar, an NGO that works for the welfare of the less fortunate trafficked children. This event was organized for the fourth consecutive year. Singer Sanjeevani Bhelande paid rich tributes to the renowned music queen, Lata Mangeshkar who completed 75 glorious years in Indian cinema. The evening brought together music lovers of Mumbai in aid of a common humanitarian cause. Snehalaya raised a tidy sum of Rs. 38.5 lakh within three hours. The proceeds went towards a noble cause of constructing an adoption center, named Snehankur for abandoned children. Sudhakar Ram, (Vice Chairman & Managing Director) inaugurated the center in October 2O17.

“Since the beginning of setting up Snehankur adoption center in the 600sqft space in Ahmednagar in 2003, we dreamt of having an ideal place for the complete well-being of abandoned infants. However, it took us 12 years to realize this dream. Mastek

It is 16000 square feet building on a 20000 sq ft plot of land with all the necessary amenities. Mastek foundation, staff & founders of Mastek have played a huge role in realizing this dream of an ideal adoption center. Snehalaya & Snehankur team express their heartfelt gratitude to Mastek foundation for supporting us to complete this herculean task and helping us save so many precious lives of these infants. A big Thank you to all!”- Dr. Girish Kulkarni, Founder, Snehalaya & Snehankur

This year, the SNEHA team independently took up automation of referral tracking with support from Mastek Foundation. Major cost saving in project implementation was achieved. The new system has helped SNEHA to reduce over 50% costs, locate records of 12% data which were earlier unmatched, but were now

retrieved through the system in the first 3 runs itself. In addition, Mastek Foundation provides consultancy to SNEHA on several technology initiatives and projects.

WonderWork is a leading organization which provides free surgeries for poor children in developing countries who are deprived of treatment and care. We developed an EMR (Electronic Medical Records) system to help them maintain the patient demographic information along with eye surgery related medical history. It also has a feature of detecting fraud by performing face recognition /verification for duplicates. The reports are generated under different categories like, Fraud, Geographic (using Google map API), Management, Quality and Outcome.

(a) Statement of Compliance

These financial statements have been preparedin accordance with Indian Accounting Standards(“Ind AS”) notified under the Companies (IndianAccounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and Companies(Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules,2016, as applicable. For all the periods upto the yearended March 31, 2017, the Company had earlierprepared and presented its financial statementsin accordance with accounting standards notifiedunder section 133 of the Companies Act 2013(Indian GAAP). These standalone financialstatements for the year ended 31st March, 2018 arethe first financial with comparatives, prepared underInd AS. The adoption was carried out in accordancewith Ind AS 101, First Time adoption of IndianAccounting Standards. The transition was carriedout from Indian Accounting Principle generallyaccepted in India as prescribed under Section 133of the Act read with the Rule 7 of the Companies(Accounts) Rules, 2014 (Indian GAAP), which wasthe previous GAAP. Reconciliations and descriptionof the effect of the transition to Ind AS from IndianGAAP is given in Note 32.

These standalone financial statement of the Companyas at and for the year ended 31st March 2018 (including Comparatives) were approved and authorized by theCompany’s board of directors as on 18th April 2018.

All amounts included in the financial statementsare reported in Indian rupees (in lakhs) except share

and per share data unless otherwise stated and “0” denotes amounts less than one lakh rupees.

(b) Basis of Preparation

The financial statements have been prepared on ahistorical cost convention and on an accrual basis,except for the following material items that have beenmeasured at fair value as required by relevant Ind AS:

i) Derivative financial instruments;

ii) Certain financial assets and liabilities measuredat fair value (refer accounting policy on financialinstruments);

iii) Share based payment transactions and

iv) Defined benefit and other long-term employeebenefits

(c) Use of estimate and judgement

The preparation of standalone financial statementsin conformity with Ind AS requires management tomake judgments, estimates and assumptions thataffect the application of accounting policies andthe reported amounts of assets, liabilities, incomeand expenses. Actual results may differ from theseestimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions arereviewed on a periodic basis. Revisions to accountingestimates are recognized in the period in whichthe estimates are revised and in any future periodsaffected. In particular, information about significantareas of estimation, uncertainty and critical judgmentsin applying accounting policies that have the mostsignificant effect on the amounts recognized in thestandalone financial statements is included in thefollowing notes:

i) Revenue recognition: The Company applies the percentage of completion method in accountingfor its fixed price contracts. Use of the percentage of completion method requires the Company toestimate the efforts or costs expended to dateas a proportion of the total efforts or costs to beexpended. Efforts or costs expended have beenused to measure progress towards completion asthere is a direct relationship between input andproductivity. Provisions for estimated losses, ifany, on uncompleted contracts are recorded inthe period in which such losses become probablebased on the expected contract estimates at thereporting date.

110 Annual Report 2017-18

Page 114: Mastek - Bombay Stock Exchange · lives through mission critical and enterprise digital transformation (DX) solutions. With over three decades of experience and a comprehensive bouquet

ii) Income taxes: Significant judgments areinvolved in determining the provision for incometaxes, including the amount expected to be paidor recovered in connection with uncertain taxpositions.

iii) Defined benefit plans and compensatedabsences: The cost of the defined benefit plans,compensated absences and the present valueof the defined benefit obligations are basedon actuarial valuation using the projected unitcredit method. An actuarial valuation involvesmaking various assumptions that may differ fromactual developments in the future. These includethe determination of the discount rate, futuresalary increases and mortality rates. Due to thecomplexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highlysensitive to changes in these assumptions. Allassumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.

iv) Property, plant & equipment: Property, plantand equipment represent a significant proportionof the asset base of the Company. The change inrespect of periodic depreciation is derived afterdetermining an estimate of an assets expecteduseful life and the expected residual at the end ofits life. The useful lives and residual values of theCompany’s are determined by the managementat the time the asset is acquired and reviewedperiodically, including at each financial year end.The lives are based on historical experience withsimilar assets as well as anticipation of futureevents, which may impact their life, such aschanges in technology.

v) Expected credit losses on financial assets:On application of Ind AS 109, the impairmentprovisions of financial assets are based onassumptions about risk of default and expectedtiming of collection. The Company uses judgments in making these assumptions and selecting theinputs to the impairment calculation, basedon the Company’s past history of collections,customer’s credit-worthiness, existing marketconditions as well as forward looking estimatesat the end of each reporting period.

vi) Deferred taxes: Deferred tax is recorded ontemporary differences between the tax bases ofassets and liabilities and their carrying amounts, at the rates that have been enacted or substantively

enacted at the reporting date. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable profits during the periods in which those temporary differences and tax loss carry forwards become deductible. The Company considers the expected reversal of deferred tax liabilities and projected future taxable income in making this assessment. The amount of the deferred tax assets considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are reduced.

vii) Provisions: Provision is recognised whenthe Company has a present obligation as aresult of past event and it is probable that anoutflow of resources will be required to settlethe obligation, in respect of which a reliableestimate can be made. Provisions (excludingretirement obligation and compensatedexpenses) are not discounted to its presentvalue and are determined based on bestestimate required to settle obligation at thebalance sheet date. These are reviewed ateach balance sheet date adjusted to reflectthe current best estimates.

viii) Share-based payments: The Grant date fair valueof options granted to employees is recognized asemployee expense, with corresponding increasein equity, over the period that the employeebecome unconditionally entitled to the option. Theincrease in equity recognized in connection withshare based payment transaction is presented as aseparate component in equity under “share optionoutstanding account”. The amount recognizedas expense is adjusted to reflect the impact of therevision estimates based on number of options thatare expected to vests, in the statement of profit andloss with a corresponding adjustment to equity.

An item of property, plant and equipmentand any significant part initially recognised isderecognised upon disposal or when no futureeconomic benefits are expected from its use ordisposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset is included in the Statement of Profitor Loss when the asset is derecognised.

For transition to Ind AS, the Company haselected to continue with the carrying valueof all its property, plant and equipmentrecognised as on April 1, 2016 measured asper previous GAAP as it deemed cost on thedate of transition.

ix) Employee Benefits

A. Long Term Employee Benefits

a) Defined Contribution Plan

The Company has defined contributionplans for post employment benefits inthe form of provident fund, employees’state insurance, labour welfare fund andsuperannuation fund in India which areadministered through Government ofIndia and/or Life Insurance Corporationof India (LIC). Under the definedcontribution plans, the Company has nofurther obligation beyond making thecontributions. Such contributions arecharged to the Statement of Profit andLoss as incurred.

b) Defined Benefit Plan

The Company has defined benefit plansfor post employment benefits in the formof gratuity for its employees in India.The gratuity scheme of the Companyis administered through Life InsuranceCorporation of India (LIC). Liability fordefined benefit plans is provided on thebasis of actuarial valuations, as at theBalance Sheet date, carried out by anindependent actuary. The actuarial valuation method used by independent actuary formeasuring the liability is the projected unitcredit method.

Actuarial gains or losses are recognized in other comprehensive income.   Further, the profit or loss does not include an expected return on plan assets. Instead net interest recognized in profit or loss is calculated by applying the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation to the net defined benefit liability or asset.

charges and a reduction in the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of liability. Finance charges are recognised in finance cost in the statement of profit and loss.

viii) Impairment of assets

a) Non Financial Instrument

Intangible assets and property, plant andequipment are evaluated for recoverabilitywhenever events or changes in circumstancesindicate that their carrying amounts may notbe recoverable. For the purpose of impairmenttesting, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higherof the fair value less cost to sell and the valuein-use) is determined on an individual assetbasis unless the asset does not generate cashflows that are largely independent of thosefrom other assets. In such cases, the recoverableamount is determined for the Cash GeneratingUnit to which the asset belongs.

If such assets are considered to be impaired,the impairment to be recognized in theStatement of Profit and Loss is measured bythe amount by which the carrying value ofthe assets exceeds the estimated recoverableamount of the asset. An impairment loss isreversed in the statement of profit and loss ifthere has been a change in the estimates usedto determine the recoverable amount. Thecarrying amount of the asset is increased to itsrevised recoverable amount, provided that thisamount does not exceed the carrying amountthat would have been determined (net of anyaccumulated amortization or depreciation)had no impairment loss been recognised forthe asset in prior years.

b) Financial instrument

The Company assesses at each date of balancesheet whether a financial asset or a group offinancial assets is impaired. Ind AS 109 requiresexpected credit losses to be measured through aloss allowance. The Company recognises lifetimeexpected losses for all contract assets and / orall trade receivables that do not constitute afinancing transaction. For all other financialassets, expected credit losses are measured at anamount equal to the 12 months expected credit

Liability for such benefits isprovided on the basis of actuarial valuations, as at the Balance Sheet date, carried outby an independent actuary. The actuarialvaluation method used by independentactuary for measuring the liability is theprojected unit credit method.

B. Short-term employee benefits

The undiscounted amount of short termemployee benefits expected to be paid inexchange for the services rendered by employeesis recognised in the year during which theemployee rendered the services. These benefitscomprise compensated absences such as paidannual leave and performance incentives.

a) Termination benefits

Termination benefits, in the nature of voluntary retirement benefits or those arising from restructuring, are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the Company has a present obligation as a result of past event, when a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligations.

x) Share Based Payments

The share basedcompensation expense in determined based onthe Company’s estimate of equity instrumentthat will eventually vest.

xi) Provisions & Contingent Liabilities

Provisions are recognised when the Company hasa present obligation as a result of past events, forwhich it is probable that an outflow of resourcesembodying economic benefits will be required tosettle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of theamount can be made. A disclosure for a contingentliability is made where there is a possible obligationthat arises from past events and the existence ofwhich will be confirmed only by the occurrenceor non occurrence of one or more uncertainfuture events not wholly within the control of theCompany or a present obligation that arises fromthe past events where it is either not probable thatan outflow of resources will be required to settlethe obligation or a reliable estimate of the amountcannot be made. Provisions are reviewed regularlyand are adjusted where necessary to reflect thecurrent best estimates of the obligation.

Page 119: Mastek - Bombay Stock Exchange · lives through mission critical and enterprise digital transformation (DX) solutions. With over three decades of experience and a comprehensive bouquet

xiii) Income Tax

Tax expense for the year comprises of currenttax and deferred tax. Current tax is measured bythe amount of tax expected to be paid to thetaxation authorities on the taxable profits afterconsidering tax allowances and exemptions andusing applicable tax rates and laws. Deferred taxis recognised on timing differences between theaccounting base and the taxable income for theyear and quantified using the tax rates and taxlaws enacted or substantively enacted as on theBalance Sheet date.

Deferred income tax is recognized using thebalance sheet approach. Deferred incometax assets and liabilities are recognized fordeductible and taxable temporary differencesarising between the tax base of assets andliabilities and their carrying amount in financialstatements, except when the deferred incometax arises from the initial recognition ofgoodwill or an asset or liability in a transactionthat is not a business combination and affectsneither accounting nor taxable profits or loss atthe time of the transaction.

Deferred income tax asset is recognized tothe extent that it is probable that taxableprofit will be available against which thedeductible temporary differences, and thecarry forward of unused tax credits andunused tax losses can be utilized. Deferredincome tax liabilities are recognized for alltaxable temporary differences.

Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT) credit isrecognised as an asset only when and tothe extent there is convincing evidence thatthe Company will pay normal income taxduring the specified period. Such asset isreviewed at each balance sheet date and thecarrying amount of the MAT credit asset iswritten down to the extent there is no longerconvincing evidence to the effect that theCompany will pay normal income tax duringthe specified period.

Current tax and deferred tax assets and liabilities areoffset when there is a legally enforceable right to setoff the recognised amount and there is an intentionto settle the asset and liability on a net basis.

b) Fixed price contract

Revenues from fixed-price contracts arerecognized using the “percentage-of-completion” method. Percentage ofcompletion is determined based on projectcosts incurred to date as a percentage oftotal estimated project costs required tocomplete the project. The cost expended (orinput) method has been used to measureprogress towards completion as there isa direct relationship between input andproductivity.

If the Company does not have a sufficient basis to measure the progress of completion or to estimate the total contract revenues and costs, revenue is recognized only to the extent of contract cost incurred for which recoverability is probable.

“Unbilled revenue” represents cost and earning in excess of billing as at the end of the reporting period. “Unearned revenue” represents billing in excess of revenue recognized. Advance payment received from customer for which no services have been rendered are presented as “Unearned revenue”

c) Maintenance contract

Revenue from maintenance contracts isrecognized ratably over the period of thecontract.

When services are performed throughan indefinite number of repetitive actsover a specified period of time, revenueis recognized on a straight line basis overthe specified period or under some othermethod that better represents the stageof completion.

Revenues are shown net of goods and service tax,sales tax, value added tax, service taxand applicable discounts and allowances.

d) Multiple element arrangements

The Company allocates the arrangementconsideration to separately identifiablecomponents based on the cost plusmargin method.

30 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company’s primary focus is to foresee the unpredictability of financial markets and seek to minimize potential adverse effects on its financial performance. The primary market risk to the Company is foreign exchange risk. The Company uses derivative financial instruments to mitigate foreign exchange related risk exposures. All derivative activities for risk management purposes are carried out by specialist teams that have the appropriate skills, experience and supervision. It is the Company’s policy that no trading in derivative for speculative purposes may be undertaken. The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks, which are summarised below:

Business and Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company’s receivables from customers and investment securities. Credit risk arises from cash held with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposure to clients, including outstanding accounts receivable. The maximum exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying value of the financial assets. The objective of managing counter party credit risk is to prevent losses in financial assets. The Company assesses the credit quality of the counterparties, taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors.

The Company’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. The demographics of the customer, including the default risk of the industry and country in which the customer operates, also has an influence on credit risk assessment. Most of the Company doubtful debt pertains to the Public Sector which is undergoing through restructuring and therefore, the Company evaluate every receivable in the geography and create adequate provision after analyzing specific risk.

Foreign Currency Risk

The Company’s activities expose it to market risk. In order to minimise any adverse effects on the financial performance of the Company, derivative financial instruments, such as foreign exchange forward contracts are used to hedge certain foreign currency risk exposures. Derivatives are used exclusively for hedging purposes and not as trading or speculative instruments.

Risk management is predominately managed by the Finance department of the Company under policies developed by Mastek UK Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary (“MUK”). The Finance department identifies, evaluates and hedges financial risks under the guidance and instructions of MUK which predominantly provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk and use of derivative financial instruments.

The Company, in accordance with its risk management policies and procedures laid down by MUK, enters into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge against foreign currency exposures relating to highly probable forecast transactions. The Company does not enter into any derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The counter party is generally a bank. These contracts are for a period between one day and three years.

(b) Exemption from retrospective application:

1. Share-based payment exemption: The Company has availed exemption available under Ind AS 101 on application of Ind AS102, “Share Based Payment”, to equity instruments that vested before the date of transition to Ind AS.

2. The Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all its property, plant and equipment including asset heldfor sale as recognised in standalone financial statements as at April 1, 2016 (transition date) to Ind AS measured as per thePrevious GAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the transition date. On transition to Ind AS, the Company has electedto continue with the carrying value of all of its intangible assets recognised as at April 1, 2016, measured as per the PreviousGAAP, and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of such intangible assets.

3. The Company has designated various hedging relationships as cash flow hedges under the Previous GAAP.

Notes

1. Fair valuation of investments:

a) Under Ind AS, financial assets and financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL) are fairvalued at each reporting date with changes in fair value recognized in the statement of profit and loss. Under previousGAAP, they are measured at lower of cost or net realisable value. Some mutual fund Liquid fund investments have beenclassified as FVTPL based on business model of the company. Consequently, increase in fair value of such investmentsin quoted mutual funds has resulted in a gain.

b) Under Ind AS, financial assets designated at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI) are fair valuedat each reporting date with changes in fair value (net of deferred taxes) recognized directly in other comprehensiveincome. Under previous GAAP, they are measured at cost with provision for diminution other than temporary.

2. Under previous GAAP, actuarial gains and losses were recognised in the statement profit and loss. Under Ind AS, theactuarial gains and losses form part of remeasurement of the net defined benefit liability / asset which is recognised in othercomprehensive income. Consequently, the tax effect of the same has also been recognised in other comprehensive incomeunder Ind AS instead of statement of profit and loss.

3. Under the Previous GAAP, the Company was not required to present other comprehensive income (OCI) separately. As perInd AS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, Ind AS 19, Employee Benefits and Ind AS 109, actuarial gain / loss on definedbenefit liability, effective portion of cash flow hedges reserve has been shown separately and gain/loss on other financialassets measured through OCI.

4. The Ind AS adjustments are either non cash adjustments or are regrouping among the cash flows from operating,investingand financing activities. Consequently, Ind AS adoption has no impact on the net cash flow for the year ended 31st March,2017 as compared with the previous GAAP.

Annexure Ato the Independent Auditor’s Report of even date to the members of Mastek Limited on the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2018.

Independent Auditor’s Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 (‘the Act’).

1. In conjunction with our audit of the consolidated financialstatements of Mastek Limited (‘the Holding Company’) andits subsidiaries (the Holding Company and its subsidiariestogether referred to as ‘the Group’), as at and for theyear ended 31 March 2018, we have audited the internalfinancial controls over financial reporting (‘IFCoFR’) of theHolding Company, its one subsidiary company, which arecompanies covered under the Act, as at that date.

Management’s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

2. The respective Board of Directors of the Holding Companyand its one subsidiary company, which are companiescovered under the Act, are responsible for establishingand maintaining internal financial controls based onthe criteria established by the Company considering theessential components of internal control stated in theGuidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controlsover Financial Reporting (“Guidance Note”) issued bythe Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (“ICAI”).These responsibilities include the design, implementationand maintenance of adequate internal financial controlsthat were operating effectively for ensuring the orderlyand efficient conduct of the company’s business, includingadherence to the company’s policies, the safeguarding of itsassets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors,the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records,and the timely preparation of reliable financial information,as required under the Act.

Auditor’s Responsibility

3. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the IFCoFRof the Holding Company and its one subsidiary company,as aforesaid, based on our audit. We conducted our auditin accordance with the Standards on Auditing issued bythe Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (‘ICAI’) anddeemed to be prescribed under Section 143(10) of the Act,to the extent applicable to an audit of IFCoFR, and theGuidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over

Financial Reporting (‘the Guidance Note’) issued by the ICAI. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate IFCoFR were established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.

4. Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain auditevidence about the adequacy of the IFCoFR and theiroperating effectiveness. Our audit of IFCoFR includesobtaining an understanding of IFCoFR, assessing the riskthat a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluatingthe design and operating effectiveness of internal controlbased on the assessed risk. The procedures selected dependon the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of therisks of material misstatement of the financial statements,whether due to fraud or error.

5. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained issufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our auditopinion on the IFCoFR of the Holding Company and its onesubsidiary company, as aforesaid.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

6. A company’s IFCoFR is a process designed to providereasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financialreporting and the preparation of financial statements forexternal purposes in accordance with generally acceptedaccounting principles. A company’s IFCoFR include thosepolicies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenanceof records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairlyreflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of thecompany; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation offinancial statements in accordance with generally acceptedaccounting principles, and that receipts and expendituresof the company are being made only in accordance withauthorisations of management and directors of thecompany; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regardingprevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition,use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could havea material effect on the financial statements.

Annexure A to the Independent Auditor’s Report of even date to the members of Mastek Limited on the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2018.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

7. Because of the inherent limitations of IFCoFR, including thepossibility of collusion or improper management overrideof controls, material misstatements due to error or fraudmay occur and not be detected. Also, projections of anyevaluation of the IFCoFR to future periods are subject tothe risk that the IFCoFR may become inadequate becauseof changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliancewith the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Opinion

8. In our opinion, the Holding Company and its onesubsidiary company, which are companies covered underthe Act, have in all material respects, adequate internal

financial controls over financial reporting and such controls were operating effectively as at 31 March 2018, based on internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the respective companies considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note issued by the ICAI.

(c) Use of estimate and judgement

The preparation of consolidated financial statementsin conformity with Ind AS requires management tomake judgments, estimates and assumptions thataffect the application of accounting policies andthe reported amounts of assets, liabilities, incomeand expenses. Actual results may differ from theseestimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions arereviewed on a periodic basis. Revisions to accountingestimates are recognized in the period in whichthe estimates are revised and in any future periodsaffected. In particular, information about significantareas of estimation, uncertainty and critical judgmentsin applying accounting policies that have the mostsignificant effect on the amounts recognized in theconsolidated financial statements is included in thefollowing notes:

i) Revenue Recognition: The Group applies thepercentage of completion method in accountingfor its fixed price contracts. Use of the percentage of completion method requires the Company toestimate the efforts or costs expended to dateas a proportion of the total efforts or costs to beexpended. Efforts or costs expended have beenused to measure progress towards completion asthere is a direct relationship between input andproductivity. Provisions for estimated losses, ifany, on uncompleted contracts are recorded inthe period in which such losses become probablebased on the expected contract estimates at thereporting date.

ii) Income taxes: The Group’s three major taxjurisdictions are India, UK and the U.S. Significantjudgments are involved in determining theprovision for income taxes, including the amountexpected to be paid or recovered in connectionwith uncertain tax positions.

iii) Business combination: Business combinationsare accounted for using Ind AS 103. Ind AS 103requires the identifiable intangible assets andcontingent consideration to be fair valued inorder to ascertain the net fair value of identifiableassets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of theacquiree. Significant estimates are required tobe made in determining the value of contingentconsideration and intangible assets and theirestimated useful life. These valuations areconducted by independent valuation experts.

iv) Defined benefit plans and compensatedabsences: The cost of the defined benefit plans,compensated absences and the present valueof the defined benefit obligations are basedon actuarial valuation using the projected unitcredit method. An actuarial valuation involvesmaking various assumptions that may differ fromactual developments in the future. These includethe determination of the discount rate, futuresalary increases and mortality rates. Due to thecomplexities involved in the valuation and itslong-term nature, a defined benefit obligation ishighly sensitive to changes in these assumptions.All assumptions are reviewed at eachreporting date.

v) Property, plant & equipment: Property, plantand equipment represent a significant proportionof the asset base of the Company. The changein respect of periodic depreciation is derivedafter determining an estimate of an assetsexpected useful life and the expected residualvalue at the end of its life. The useful lives andresidual values of the Company’s are determinedby the management at the time the asset isacquired and reviewed periodically, including ateach financial year end. The lives are based onhistorical experience with similar assets as well asanticipation of future events, which may impacttheir life, such as changes in technology

vi) Impairment testing: Goodwill and Intangibleassets recognized on business combinationare tested for impairment at least annually orwhen events occur or changes in circumstancesindicate that the recoverable amount of theasset or the cash generating unit (CGU) to whichthese pertain is less than the carrying value. Therecoverable amount of the asset or the cashgenerating units is higher of value-in-use andfair value less cost of disposal. The calculation ofvalue in use of a cash generating unit involves use of significant estimates and assumptions whichincludes turnover and earnings multiples, growthrates and net margins used to calculate projectedfuture cash flows, risk-adjusted discount rate,future economic and market conditions.

vii) Expected credit losses on financial assets:On application of Ind AS 109, the impairmentprovisions of financial assets are based on

155Mastek Limited

Page 159: Mastek - Bombay Stock Exchange · lives through mission critical and enterprise digital transformation (DX) solutions. With over three decades of experience and a comprehensive bouquet

assumptions about risk of default and expected timing of collection. The Company uses judgment in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation, based on the Company’s past history of collections, customer’s credit-worthiness, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of each reporting period.

viii) Research & Development Credit: Researchand Development credit, in accordance with IndAS 20 are recognised only to the extent there isreasonable assurance that the related conditionswill be met and amounts will be received.

ix) Deferred taxes: Deferred tax is recorded ontemporary differences between the tax bases ofassets and liabilities and their carrying amounts, at the rates that have been enacted or substantivelyenacted at the reporting date. The ultimaterealization of deferred tax assets is dependentupon the generation of future taxable profitsduring the periods in which those temporarydifferences and tax loss carry forwards becomedeductible. The Company considers the expectedreversal of deferred tax liabilities and projectedfuture taxable income in making this assessment.The amount of the deferred tax assets consideredrealizable, however, could be reduced in the nearterm if estimates of future taxable income duringthe carry-forward period are reduced.

x) Provisions: Provision is recognised when theGroup has a present obligation as a result ofpast event and it is probable that an outflow ofresources will be required to settle the obligation,in respect of which a reliable estimate can bemade. Provisions (excluding retirement obligation and compensated expenses) are not discountedto its present value and are determined based onbest estimate required to settle obligation at thebalance sheet date. These are reviewed at eachbalance sheet date adjusted to reflect the currentbest estimates.

xi) Share-based payments: The Grant datefair value of options granted to employeesis recognized as employee expense, withcorresponding increase in equity, over the period

that the employee become unconditionally entitled to the option. The increase in equity recognized in connection with share based payment transaction is presented as a separate component in equity under “share option outstanding account”. The amount recognized as expense is adjusted to reflect the impact of the revision estimates based on number of options that are expected to vests, in the statement of profit and loss with a corresponding adjustment to equity.

(d) Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporatethe financial statements of the Company andentities controlled by the Company (its subsidiaries).Control exists when the parent has power over aninvestee, exposure or rights to variable returns fromits involvement with the investee and ability to use itspower to affect those returns. Power is demonstratedthrough existing rights that give the ability to directrelevant activities, those which significantly affect theentity’s returns. Subsidiaries are consolidated from thedate control commences until the date control ceases.The financial statements of subsidiaries areconsolidated on a line-by-line basis and intra-groupbalances and transactions including unrealised gain/loss from such transactions are eliminated uponconsolidation. The financial statements are preparedby applying uniform policies in use at the Group.

(e) Summary of Significant accounting policies

i) Functional and Presentation Currency

Items included in the consolidated financialstatements of each of the Group’s subsidiariesare measured using the currency of the primaryeconomic environment in which these entitiesoperate (i.e. the “functional currency”). Theconsolidated financial statements are presentedin Indian Rupee, the national currency of India,which is the functional currency of the Company.

Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and measured at historical cost are translated at the exchange rate prevalent at the date of transaction.

For the purposes of presenting the consolidated financial statements assets and liabilities of Group’s foreign operations with functional currency different from the Company are translated into Company’s functional currency i.e. INR using exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. Exchange differences arising, if any are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity.

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date.

Allfinancial assets and liabilities are recognizedat fair value on initial recognition, except fortrade receivables which are initially measuredat transaction price. Transaction costs that aredirectly attributable to the acquisition or issueof financial assets and liabilities that are not atfair value through profit or loss are added to thefair value on initial recognition. Regular purchaseand sale of financial assets are recognised on thetrade date.

B. Subsequent Measurement

1. Non-Derivative Financial Instruments

a) Financial Assets Carried at Amortised Cost

A financial asset is subsequently measured atamortised cost if it is held within a business

model whose objective is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

b) Financial Assets at Fair Value Through OtherComprehensive Income (FVTOCI)

A financial asset is subsequently measuredat fair value through other comprehensiveincome if it is held within a business modelwhose objective is achieved by both collectingcontractual cash flows and selling financialassets and the contractual terms of the financialasset give rise on specified dates to cash flowsthat are solely payments of principal andinterest on the principal amount outstanding.Further in cases where the Company has madean irrevocable election based on its businessmodel, for its investment which are classified asequity instruments, the subsequent changes infair value are recognised in OCI.

c) Financial Assets at Fair Value Through Profit orLoss (FVTPL)

A financial asset which is not classified in any ofthe above categories are subsequently fair valuedthrough profit or loss.

d) Financial Liabilities

Financial liabilities are subsequently carried atamortized cost using the effective interest method, except for contingent consideration recognizedin a business combination which is subsequentlymeasured at fair value through profit and loss.For trade and other payables maturing within oneyear from the Balance Sheet date, the carryingamounts approximate fair value due to the shortmaturity of these instruments.

e) Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company holds derivative financialinstruments such as foreign exchange forward tomitigate the risk of changes in exchange rates onforeign currency exposures. The counterparty forthese contracts is generally a bank. Derivativesare recognized and measured at fair value.

comprehensive income and presented within equity in the cash flow hedging reserve to the extent that the hedge is effective. To the extent that the hedge is ineffective, changes in fair value are recognized in the consolidated statement of profit and loss.

C. Derecognition of Financial Instruments

The Company derecognises a financial assetwhen the contractual right to receive the cashflows from the financial asset expire or it transfers the financial asset.

A financial liability is derecognised when theobligation under the liability is discharged,cancelled or expires.

iv) Current Versus Non-Current Classification

i) An asset is considered as current when it is:

a) Expected to be realized or intended to be soldor consumed in normal operating cycle

b) Held primarily for the purpose of trading

c) Expected to be realised within twelvemonths after the reporting period, or

d) Cash or cash equivalent unless restrictedfrom being exchanged or used to settle aliability for at least twelve months after thereporting period.

ii) All other assets are classified as non-current.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified asnon-current assets and liabilities

v) Property, Plant & Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are statedat cost, less accumulated depreciation andimpairment, if any. Costs directly attributable

to acquisition are capitalized until the property, plant and equipment are ready for use, as intended by management. The cost of property, plant and equipment acquired in a business combination is recorded at fair value on the date of acquisition

An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognised is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset is included in the Statement of Profit or Loss when the asset is derecognised.

For transition to Ind AS, the Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all its property, plant and equipment recognised as on April 1, 2016 measured as per previous GAAP as it deemed cost on the date of transition.

The Company depreciates property, plant and equipment over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives of assets are as follows:

Building 25 - 30 years

Computers 2-4 years

Plant and Machinery 2 - 5 years

Furniture and fixtures 5 years

Office Equipment 5 years

Vehicles 2 - 5 years

01-26 27-98 99-192 193-206Corporate Overview Management Review Financial Statements Shareholder Information

The amortization of an intangible asset with a finite useful life reflects the manner in which the economic benefit is expected to be generated.

The estimated useful life of amortizable intangibles are reviewed and where appropriate are adjusted, annually.

The estimated useful lives of the amortizable intangible assets for the current and comparative periods are as follows:

Category Useful Life

Computer Software 1 - 5 years

Customer Contracts 1 Year

Customer Relationships 10-15 Years

vii) Business combination

Business combinations are accounted for usingthe acquisition method under the provisions ofInd AS 103, Business Combinations. The costof an acquisition is measured at the fair valueof the assets transferred, equity instrumentsissued and liabilities incurred or assumed at thedate of acquisition, which is the date on whichcontrol is transferred to the Company. Thecost of acquisition also includes the fair valueof any contingent consideration. Identifiableassets acquired, liabilities and contingentliabilities assumed in a business combination aremeasured initially at their fair value on the dateof acquisition.

viii) Leases

Leases where significant portion of riskand reward of ownership are retained bythe lessor, are classified as operating leasesand lease payments are recognised as anexpense on a straight line basis in Statementof Profit and Loss over the lease term.Finance leases that transfer substantially all of therisks and benefits incidental to ownership of theleased item,are capitalized at commencement ofthe lease at the fair value of the leased propertyor, if lower, at the present value of the minimumlease payments. Lease payments are apportionedbetween finance charges and a reduction in thelease liability so as to achieve a constant rateof interest on the remaining balance of liability.

Finance charges are recognised in finance cost in the statement of profit and loss.

ix) Impairment of assetsa) Non Financial Instrument

Intangible assets and property, plant andequipment are evaluated for recoverabilitywhenever events or changes in circumstancesindicate that their carrying amounts may notbe recoverable. For the purpose of impairmenttesting, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higherof the fair value less cost to sell and the valuein-use) is determined on an individual assetbasis unless the asset does not generatecash flows that are largely independent ofthose from other assets. In such cases, therecoverable amount is determined for the CashGenerating Unit to which the asset belongs.If such assets are considered to be impaired,the impairment to be recognized in theStatement of Profit and Loss is measured bythe amount by which the carrying value ofthe assets exceeds the estimated recoverableamount of the asset. An impairment loss isreversed in the statement of profit and loss ifthere has been a change in the estimates usedto determine the recoverable amount. Thecarrying amount of the asset is increased to itsrevised recoverable amount, provided that thisamount does not exceed the carrying amountthat would have been determined (net of anyaccumulated amortization or depreciation) hadno impairment loss been recognised for theasset in prior years.

b) Financial instrument

The Group assesses at each date of balance sheet whether a financial asset or a group of financialassets is impaired. Ind AS 109 requires expectedcredit losses to be measured through a lossallowance. The Company recognises lifetimeexpected losses for all contract assets and /or all trade receivables that do not constitutea financing transaction. For all other financialassets, expected credit losses are measured atan amount equal to the 12 months expectedcredit losses or at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk onthe financial asset has increased significantlysince initial recognition.

01-26 27-98 99-192 193-206Corporate Overview Management Review Financial Statements Shareholder Information

xi) Share Based Payment

The Group determines the compensation costbased on the fair value method in accordancewith Ind AS 102 share based payment. The Group grants options to its employees which will bevested in a graded manner and are to be exercised within a specified period. The compensation costis amortized on graded basis over the vestingperiod. The share based compensation expense isdetermined based on the Company’s estimate ofequity instruments that will eventually vest.

xii) Provisions & Contingent Liabilities

Provisions are recognised when the Group has apresent obligation as a result of past events, forwhich it is probable that an outflow of resourcesembodying economic benefits will be required tosettle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of theamount can be made. A disclosure for a contingent liability is made where there is a possible obligationthat arises from past events and the existence ofwhich will be confirmed only by the occurrence ornon occurrence of one or more uncertain futureevents not wholly within the control of the Groupor a present obligation that arises from the pastevents where it is either not probable that anoutflow of resources will be required to settle theobligation or a reliable estimate of the amountcannot be made. Provisions are reviewed regularlyand are adjusted where necessary to reflect thecurrent best estimates of the obligation. Where the Group expects a provision to be reimbursed, thereimbursement is recognized as a separate asset,only when such reimbursement is virtually certain.

xiii) Revenue Recognition

The Group derives revenue primarily frominformation technology services. The Grouprecognizes revenue when the significant termsof the arrangement are enforceable, serviceshave been delivered and the collectability isreasonably assured. The method for recognizingrevenues and costs depends on the nature of theservices rendered:

a) Time and materials contractsRevenues and costs relating to time andmaterials contracts are recognized as therelated services are rendered.

b) Fixed price contractRevenues from fixed-price contracts arerecognized using the “percentage-of-completion” method. Percentage ofcompletion is determined based on projectcosts incurred to date as a percentage oftotal estimated project costs required tocomplete the project. The cost expended(or input) method has been used tomeasure progress towards completion asthere is a direct relationship between inputand productivity.

If the Group does not have a sufficient basis to measure the progress of completion or to estimate the total contract revenues and costs, revenue is recognized only to the extent of contract cost incurred for which recoverability is probable.

Unbilled revenue represents cost and earning in excess of billing as at the end of the reporting period. “”Unearned revenue”” represents billing in excess of revenue recognized. Advance payment received from customer for which no services have been rendered are presented as ‘Unearned revenue.

c) Maintenance contract

Revenue from maintenance contracts isrecognized ratably over the period of thecontract.

When services are performed throughan indefinite number of repetitive actsover a specified period of time, revenueis recognized on a straight line basis overthe specified period or under some othermethod that better represents the stage ofcompletion.

Revenues are shown net of goods and service tax, sales tax, value added tax and applicable discounts and allowances.

d) Multiple element arrangements

The Company allocates the arrangementconsideration to separately identifiablecomponents based on the cost plusmargin method.

xiv) Income Tax

Tax expense for the year comprises of currenttax and deferred tax. Current tax is measured bythe amount of tax expected to be paid to thetaxation authorities on the taxable profits afterconsidering tax allowances and exemptions andusing applicable tax rates and laws. Deferred taxis recognised on timing differences between theaccounting base and the taxable income for theyear and quantified using the tax rates and taxlaws enacted or substantively enacted as on theBalance Sheet date.

Deferred income tax is recognized using thebalance sheet approach. Deferred incometax assets and liabilities are recognized fordeductible and taxable temporary differencesarising between the tax base of assets andliabilities and their carrying amount in financialstatements, except when the deferred incometax arises from the initial recognition of goodwillor an asset or liability in a transaction that isnot a business combination and affects neitheraccounting nor taxable profits or loss at thetime of the transaction.

Deferred income tax asset is recognized to theextent that it is probable that taxable profitwill be available against which the deductibletemporary differences, and the carry forwardof unused tax credits and unused tax losses canbe utilized. Deferred Income tax liabilities arerecognized for all taxable temporary differences.Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT) credit is recognised as an asset only when and to the extent there isconvincing evidence that the Company will paynormal income tax during the specified period.Such asset is reviewed at each balance sheetdate and the carrying amount of the MAT creditasset is written down to the extent there is nolonger convincing evidence to the effect that theCompany will pay normal income tax during thespecified period.

Current tax and deferred tax assets and liabilitiesare offset when there is a legally enforceableright to set off the recognised amount and thereis an intention to settle the asset and liability ona net basis.

xv) Other Income

Other income comprises interest income ondeposits, research and development credits,

dividend income and gains / (losses) on disposal of investments except investments fair value through OCI. Interest income is recognized using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive payment is established.

xvi) Finance income and expenses

Finance costs comprises interest cost onborrowings, gain or losses arising on re-measurement of financial assets at FVTPL, gains/(losses) on translation or settlement of foreigncurrency borrowings and changes in fair valueand gains/ (losses) on settlement of relatedderivative instruments.

26. SEGMENT REPORTING

The CEO of the Company has been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) as defined by Ind AS 108, Operating Segments. The CODM evaluates the Group’s performance and allocates resources based on an analysis of various performanceindicators by geographical information. Accordingly, segment information has been presented for geographical information.

The organisational and reporting structure of the Group is based on geographical concept. Geographies are the operating segments for which separate financial information is available and for which operating results are evaluated regularly by CODM in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Group’s primary reportable segments consist of three different geographies which are based on the risks and returns in different geographies and the location of the customers: North America Operations, UK Operations, and Others.

Income and direct expenses in relation to segments are categorized based on items that are individually identifiable to that segment, while the remainder of costs are apportioned on an appropriate basis. Certain income and expenses are not specifically allocable to individual segments as the underlying services are used interchangeably. The management therefore believes that it is not practical to provide segment disclosures relating to such expenses and accordingly such expenses are separately disclosed as “unallocated” and directly charged against total income.

CODM does not review assets and liabilities at reportable segments level hence segment disclosure relating to total assets and liabilities has not been provided. Geographical information on revenue and industry revenue information is collated based on individual customers invoices or in relation to which the revenue is otherwise recognized.

Revenues and expenses directly attributable to segments are reported under each reportable segment. All other costs i.e. corporate costs and support function costs, which are not directly attributable or allocable to segments have been disclosed as common unallocable charges, net. Similarly revenues and income not allocable to segments are disclosed as net of unallocable expenditure.

The accounting policies consistently used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are also applied to item of revenue and expenditure in individual segments.

The Group’s primary focusis to foresee the unpredictability of financial markets and seek to minimize potential adverse effects on its financial performance.The primary market risk to the Group is foreign exchange risk. The Group uses derivative financial instruments to mitigate foreignexchange related risk exposures. All derivative activities for risk management purposes are carried out by specialist teams that havethe appropriate skills, experience and supervision. It is the Group’s policy that no trading in derivative for speculative purposes maybe undertaken. The Board of Directors and audit committee reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks, which aresummarised below:

Business and Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractualobligations, and arises principally from the Group’s receivables from customers and investment securities. Credit risk arises fromcash held with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposure to clients, including outstanding accounts receivable. Themaximum exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying value of the financial assets. The objective of managing counter party creditrisk is to prevent losses in financial assets. The Group assesses the credit quality of the counterparties, taking into account theirfinancial position, past experience, analysis of historical bad debts, ageing of accounts receivable and other factors.

The Group’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. The demographics ofthe customer, including the default risk of the industry and country in which the customer operates, also has an influence oncredit risk assessment. Significant portion of Group receivable are in UK and US geography where Group’s historical experience interms of actual bad debt is minimal. Most of the Group’s doubtful debts pertains to the Indian public sector which is undergoingthrough restructuring and therefore, Group evaluate every receivable in the geography and create adequate provision afteranalyzing specific risk.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial StatementsFor the year ended March 31, 2018(All amounts in ` Lakhs, unless otherwise stated)

(a) Exception from full retrospective application:

1. Estimates exception: Upon an assessment of the estimates made under previous GAAP, the management is of the opinionthat there was no need to revise such estimates under Ind AS, except where estimates were required by Ind ASs and notrequired by previous GAAP.

b) Exemption from retrospective application:

1. Share-based payment exemption: The Group has availed exemption available under Ind AS 101 on application of Ind AS102, “Share Based Payment”, to equity instruments that vested before the date of transition to Ind ASs.

2. Business combination exemption: The Group has applied the exemption as provided in Ind AS 101 from application of IndAS 103, Business Combinations” to business combinations made prior to April 1, 2016.

3. The cumulative translation differences for all the foreign operations are deemed to be zero on the date of transition and thegain or loss on a subsequent disposal of any foreign operation shall exclude translation differences that arose before dateof transition and shall include subsequent translation differences.

4. The Group has elected to continue with the carrying value of all its property, plant and equipment including asset held for saleas recognised in consolidated financial statements as at April 1, 2016 (transition date) to Ind AS measured as per the PreviousGAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the transition date.

On transition to Ind AS, the Group has elected to continue with the carrying value of all of its intangible assets recognised asat April 1, 2016, measured as per the Previous GAAP, and use that carrying value as the deemed cost or such intangible assets.

5. Under Ind AS 109, at initial recognition of a financial asset, an entity may make an irrevocable election to presentsubsequent changes in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument in other comprehensive income. Ind AS101 allows such designation of previously recognized financial assets, as Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income(FVTOCI) on the basis of the facts and circumstances that existed at the date of transition to Ind AS. Accordingly, theGroup has designated its investments in equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income on thebasis of the facts and circumstances that existed at the date of transition to Ind AS.

6. The Group has designated various hedging relationships as cash flow hedges under the Previous GAAP. On date of transitionto Ind AS, the Group has assessed that all the designated hedging relationship qualifies for hedge accounting as per Ind AS109. Consequently, the Group continues to apply hedge accounting on and after the date of transition to Ind AS.

Notes:

1. Business combination

“Under Ind AS, the acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities that meet the condition for recognitionare recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date. This has resulted in the recognition of intangible assets andconsequent amortisation of such intangible assets in the statement of profit and loss. Under previous GAAP, the assets andliabilities of the acquiree are recognised at their book values.

Further, under Ind AS, contingent consideration payable on business combination is recognised on the date of acquisitionat fair value and revalued subsequently on each reporting date for change in fair value, if any. While under previous GAAPit was accounted at cost as and when liability is probable.”

2. Fair valuation of investments:

a) Under Ind AS, financial assets and financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL) arefair valued at each reporting date with changes in fair value recognized in the statement of profit and loss. Underprevious GAAP, they are measured at lower of cost or net realisable value. Some mutual fund and Liquid fundinvestments have been classified as FVTPL based on the business model of the group. Consequently, increase in fairvalue of such investments in quoted mutual funds has resulted in a gain.

b) Under Ind AS, financial assets designated at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI) are fair valuedat each reporting date with changes in fair value (net of deferred taxes) recognized directly in other comprehensiveincome. Under previous GAAP, they were measured at cost with provision for dimunition other than temporary.Investments in equity instruments have been classified as FVTOCI. Consequently, fair value of such equity instrumentsdesignated at FVTOCI has resulted in a gain in other comprehensive income.

3. Under previous GAAP, actuarial gains and losses were recognised in the statement profit and loss. Under Ind AS, theactuarial gains and losses form part of remeasurement of the net defined benefit liability / asset which is recognised in othercomprehensive income. Consequently, the tax effect of the same has also been recognised in other comprehensive incomeunder Ind AS instead of statement of profit and loss.

4. Under the Previous GAAP, the Group was not required to present other comprehensive income (OCI) separately. As per Ind AS 1,Presentation of Financial Statements, actuarial gain / loss on defined benefit liability, effective portion of cash flow hedges andcurrency translation reserve and gain/loss on other financial assets fair valued through OCI has been shown as a part of OCI.

5. The Ind AS adjustments are either non cash adjustments or are regrouping among the cash flows from operating,investingand financing activities. Consequently, Ind AS adoption has no impact on the net cash flow for the year ended 31st March,2017 as compared with the previous GAAP.

Within the overall limit, Commission will be distributed amongst the Directors in accordance with the recommendation of Nomination and Remuneration Committee and directions given by the Board of Directors in respect of each financial year. The Commission will be in addition to the sitting fees payable to the Directors for attending the meetings of the Board or Committee thereof and reimbursement of expenses for participation in the Board and other meetings.
